As I sit here attempting to finish my accounting paper, I can't help but smile uncontrollably. You see Vance is watching Toy Story 2 and is enjoying it immensely. It amazes me how intelligent a two year old can be. He watches intently and then suddenly is reapeating certain phrases the characters have just said. I wish you all could hear how cute it is when he says "To infinity and beyond". Days like today keep me humble and remind me how blessed I am in life :) He is a complete joy to have and even as I sit here and stress over my paper, there is a part of me that is calm as I take little moments to smile and enjoy the mind of a two year old.

Random picture of the day


Vance at the playground. He is in one of those tunnels. When he pressed his little face out the hole it was too cute and we were able to get it on film :)

Our first visitors

We finally had our first visitors. Ryan's mom, Cindy and her husband Frank came to see us. It was a good visit. We actually got out and explored a little of Washington :) We found some great places to go hiking. We walked through downtown Seattle, visited the space needle (next time we need to go up in it) and had fun just hanging out and relaxing. Vance loved it!!! He would wake up in the mornings and come into our room (waking me up) and ask "you know where my grandma is?" So I would send him downstairs to get her because they were already awake.

He isn't as broken as I though he would be after they left. He occasionally looks around and asks "where'd my drandma go?" or "my papa is on airplane" (that's one heck of an airplane ride) All in all though he has handled it really well. Can't wait to see who our next visitor is going to be??? You are all welcome :)
It's been a while since my last post. No excuses, just lazy. LOL things in Washington are good. The weather is unpredictable two days ago it was a beautiful sunshine filled day. Yesterday and today it is overcast, cold, and rainy. Welcome to the great northwest!!!
